Enforceable Check Without Lawsuit
The article focused on the Bahraini judiciary and the procedures for executing dishonored checks in accordance with the new law. It clarified that starting from February 3, 2026, dishonored checks can be executed directly as enforceable instruments without the need to file a lawsuit, due to the amendments introduced by Law No. 23 of 2025. The law stipulates that a check marked as bounced for lack of sufficient funds or partial payment is considered an enforceable instrument that can be executed through specific procedures, provided that the necessary documents are submitted—such as a bank certificate indicating insufficient funds—and that an enforcement fee of 2% of the check's value is paid. The rules for conducting direct enforcement on dishonored checks have been organized to facilitate the collection of rights and to reduce judicial procedures.
